I am a Mentor and Team Leader. I am not in business to build an enormous
team of people I do not know and who do not know me.
I was with other companies prior to joining my current
business. With them, I might just as
well have had no sponsor, because I had virtually no contact with them. When I
called my sponsor in my previous company, I would get a “rah-rah” speech. I NEVER received any training whatsoever, and
surprise, I was not successful.
There may be many people out there in the industry who simply
want to grow a huge team and earn money.
That is fine for them. I am not
one of those people. Don’t get me wrong…
I have one of the largest teams in my company, but I do not have thousands of
team members. I do not WANT thousands of
team members. Sure, I’d have an amazing
income if I did, but I would not enjoy my work nearly as much as I do now.
New team members, in particular, usually want support, not
just answers to questions. They want to
know that there is someone willing to help them build their business. I love mentoring my team members. I like that they call, Skype and email me to
ask for help, and I am happy to provide it.
I have come to know many of my team members well, and a few have become
close friends.
There are companies whose “back office” websites are the
place where their representatives acquire all their training. Some also offer corporate webinars or
calls. My company has an amazing,
comprehensive high-tech back office.
Most of our Affiliates could learn everything they want to know about
the business using our back office.
However, I do not want my team members spending weeks in the
back office learning everything they need to know before they begin actually
working their business. I suggest that
my team members explore their back office so they will know where to find
everything whenever they need it, and then get out there and start growing a
business!
I frequently get calls from team members asking me, “Where
can I find …?” I could tell them that it
is in their back office, and let them spend 20-30 minutes trying to locate what
they are seeking… OR, I can tell them where to find it in 30 seconds and let
them spend that 20-30 minutes working instead.
I have been told I spend too much time mentoring my team members,
that I should just direct them to their back office since everything they need
to know is there. While it is true that
I could do that, I have a pretty successful, active, working team, BECAUSE I
spend “too much time” with my team members.
My team members are people to me, not numbers. No, I’ll never have a team of 10,000, and
that is just fine with me.
